Installation

Git Configuration

It's recommended to configure Git using command line to simplify repository access. You can set your name and email, which helps avoid repeatedly entering your credentials. Run the following commands in your terminal:

# Set your name
git config --global user.name "Your Name"

# Set your email
git config --global user.email "yourname@somewhere.something"

# Set credential helper with timeout
git config --global credential.helper 'cache --timeout=3600'

Ensure Git LFS is installed and configured prior to building mpas-bundle.
```
 git lfs install
```

Installation Steps

For performance and memory reasons, it is recommended to compile mpas-bundle using the gnu platform.

Clone the Repository: Clone the mpas-bundle repository and navigate into the repository's root directory.
```
git clone https://github.com/JCSDA/mpas-bundle.git
cd mpas-bundle
```

To set up your environment for building mpas-bundle, run the appropriate environment setup script for your computing and compiler platform. The compiler/shell specific environment configuration commands are listed in the below table.

GNU Intel

zsh/bash source env-setup/gnu-derecho.sh source env-setup/intel-derecho.sh

csh/tcsh source env-setup/gnu-derecho.csh source env-setup/intel-derecho.csh

	GNU	Intel
zsh/bash	`source env-setup/gnu-derecho.sh`	`source env-setup/intel-derecho.sh`
csh/tcsh	`source env-setup/gnu-derecho.csh`	`source env-setup/intel-derecho.csh`

Create and navigate into the build directory.

mkdir <mpas-bundle_build_dir>

cd <mpas-bundle_build_dir>

Run CMake to configure the build. Though not required, you can pass flags to cmake that define the build type, makefile verbosity, build engine, and compiler flags. A table of useful CMake flags can be found here.
```
cmake <mpas-bundle_dir> <cmake_flags> 
```

Building on a Compute Node

Due to resource limitations, it's recommended to build and run tests on a compute node.

Use the run_make.bundle.sh script to generate a batch job for building.

bash <mpas_bundle_dir>/env-setup/run_make.bundle.sh -A <derecho_account> -e <mpas-bundle_dir>/env-setup -c <compiler> -n

Submit the job with qsub.
```
qsub make.pbs.sh 
```

When the above job finishes, generate a batch job for running mpas-jedi's test suite and submit it using qsub

bash <mpas_bundle_dir>/env-setup/run_make.bundle.sh -A <derecho_account> -e <mpas-bundle_dir>/env-setup -c <compiler> -x ctest -n

qsub ctest.pbs.sh

Building in an Interactive Session

Start an interactive session.

qsub -A <derecho_account> -N cc-mpas-bundle -q main -l walltime=03:00:00 -l select=1:ncpus=8 -I

Once the session starts, source the environment configuration script as you did in this step.
Enter the mpas-bundle build directory
```
cd <mpas_bundle_build_dir>
```
and start the build. Make sure to specify the number of cores GNU Make should use with the -j flag. In the below command, mpas-bundle is compiled using 8 cores.
```
make -j8
```
and run ctest. You can execute ctest without any flags to run all available tests with default settings. However, ctest supports numerous flags that allow you to customize the test execution. For a table of useful ctest flags, click here.
```
ctest <ctest_flags>
```

Useful CMake Flags

Flag	Description	Acceptable Values
`-G`	Specifies the generator to use for the build system.	`Unix Makefiles`, `Ninja`, etc.
`-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE`	Defines the type of build.	`Debug`, `Release`, `RelWithDebInfo`, `MinSizeRel`
`-DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE`	Enables verbose output from the makefile, useful for debugging.	`ON`, `OFF`
`-DCMAKE_C_FLAGS`	Allows specification of additional flags for the C compiler.	Compiler flags (e.g., `-O3`, `-Wall`, etc.)
`-DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS`	Allows specification of additional flags for the C++ compiler.	Compiler flags (e.g., `-O3`, `-Wall`, etc.)
`-DCMAKE_Fortran_FLAGS`	Allows specification of additional flags for the Fortran compiler.	Compiler flags (e.g., `-O3`, `-Wall`, etc.)
`-D`	Passes any variable definition to CMake, used for custom options in `CMakeLists.txt`.	Variable=Value (e.g., `MY_CUSTOM_OPTION=ON`, etc.)
`--build`	Builds a CMake-generated project binary tree.	Build directory path

Useful CTest Flags

Flag	Description	Acceptable Values
`--build-and-test`	Build and test a project.	Path to project and build tree, additional arguments
`--test-action`	Specifies the action to perform (e.g., test, start, update, configure, build).	`test`, `start`, `update`, `configure`, `build`
`--output-on-failure`	Output anything from the test program if it fails.	N/A
`--parallel`	Run the tests in parallel using the given number of jobs.	Number of jobs (e.g., `4`)
`--schedule-random`	Schedule tests in random order.	N/A
`--stop-on-failure`	Stop running tests after the first test fails.	N/A
`--timeout`	Set a global timeout for all tests, after which CTest will kill the test.	Timeout in seconds (e.g., `120`)
`--verbose`	Enable verbose output from tests.	N/A
`--repeat`	Repeat the tests according to a specified mode (e.g., until fail, until pass, after timeout).	`until-fail`, `until-pass`, `after-timeout`
`--extra-submit`	Specify files to submit to a dashboard. Files are submitted to the first dashboard mentioned in CTestConfig.cmake.	File paths
